Chasing The Fierce Heiress

Chapter 190: She’s Not A Spoiled Child



He continued, “The children in the orphanage are all my children.”

That was a good reason. Hazel glared at him speechlessly as Joshua was teasing her again.

“Daddy, who is this beautiful sister?” The little girl stared curiously at Hazel.

“Poo-!” Hazel was amused.

Joshua’s face darkened as he put the little girl on the ground. Then he said earnestly. “I’m your father. Of course, she’s your mother.”

“Oh! I see.” The little girl appeared very clever. “This beautiful elder sister is father’s girlfriend!”

Joshua looked even unhappier. He squatted down and squeezed the girl’s cheeks. “You mustn’t call her sister but should call her mom.”

“But I have a few moms. Since your beautiful sister is your girlfriend, of course, I should give her a special address!” The little girl said, smiling.

“Call me sister. I like it when you call me sister,” Hazel chirped.

Joshua’s eyes were a bit sad. Was he so old?

“Sister, elder sister,” The little girl yelled repeatedly.

Joshua looked a little unhappier. “Go and call your brothers and sisters to come and get the presents.”

The little girl skipped and jumped happily as she went to tell them.

Hazel looked at Joshua after she mused. “How many moms do they have?”

“Well, we’re all children in orphanages, some of us grew up in orphanages, some of us were adopted by other families, but we always come back here, and we become the mothers and fathers of these children,” Joshua whispered.

Hazel gently held Joshua’s hand softly. He made her feel both loved and adored.

“Uncle, you’re really too sweet.” Hazel’s eyes were sparkling.

“Uncle?” Joshua’s eyes twinkled.

“Of course, you are, Uncle,” said Hazel as she mischievously winked. “You’re much older than me, after all.”

“Hazel Denmark!” Joshua gnashed his teeth.

A group of children ran over and happily, surrounded Joshua. Instantly, they shouted constantly, “Daddy.”

Joshua and Hazel took out gifts to them. In addition to the gifts, Joshua brought a lot of supplies, which were also moved into the orphanage by his bodyguards.

After arranging all the stuff, Joshua took Hazel to the orphanage director.

“Hazel, this is the director of the orphanage, Auntie Jennie.” Joshua gently introduced the two of them, “Auntie Jennie, this is Hazel, my…”

“Girlfriend?” Jennie Collins interrupted him and sized Hazel up and down.

“Nice to meet you, Auntie Jennie.” Hazel hurried to say hello. She had heard from Joshua that before he was adopted by the Denmark family, he and others were raised by Jennie since he was a baby, so Hazel was extremely nervous now as if she was a daughter-in-law.

“Mmm.” Jennie nodded her head calmly, her face still calm. Though she wasn’t critical of Hazel, she certainly wasn’t enthusiastic.

Hazel was more nervous as she could feel Jennie’s alienation.

“How old are you?” Jennie asked.

“Twenty-one,” Hazel replied.

“Five or six years younger than Joshua,” Jennie gave Joshua a look and continued asking, “Can you cook?”

“No,” Hazel replied awkwardly and put her head down.

“Then Joshua, come help me in the kitchen,” Jennie said. “Go to play with the kids, Hazel.”

“Oh?” Hazel was a little fearful.

“Go and play with the kids,” Joshua smiled at her gently. “I’ll help Auntie Jennie cook.”

“Oh…” Hazel said uneasily.

As Jennie turned around to go into the kitchen and Joshua was about to follow her, Hazel tugged at him hurriedly and whispered anxiously, “Joshua, does Auntie Jennie, not like me…”

“Nothing,” Joshua said, patting her hair gently. “Auntie Jennie takes care of so many children, and there are quite a few naughty kids, so she is serious to everyone.”

“I see…” Hazel heaved a sigh of relief and was completely relieved.

When Joshua entered the kitchen, Jennie was sitting on a small bench cooking.

“Auntie Jennie, let me do it,” said Joshua.

“Okay.” Jennie stood up, and Joshua quickly helped her. She reached out her hand to pound her chest and pushed him away. “Nothing. I’m old with old sickness.”

“I made an appointment for your physical examination next weekend. You need to be checked,” said Joshua quietly.

“Don’t bother. How can I leave?” Jennie raised her eyebrows with displeasure.

“The children in the orphanage will go with you,” Joshua continued.

“All right, then.” Jennie nodded. She turned around for plates, but suddenly she said, “Sharon is also coming today.”

“Mmm,” Joshua said quietly.

“She’s still single.” Jennie continued, with some dissatisfaction.

His brows were raised slightly as Joshua said quietly, “Then I’ll introduce a few handsome boys to her.”

“Joshua, why do you pretend you don’t understand me?” Jennie put down the plates. “You grew up with Sharon. You are sort of childhood sweethearts. Don’t you have a great relationship?”

“We do have a great relationship,” said Joshua, still with a calm face. “I have always regarded her as my sister, and I will.”

“Joshua! Hasn’t Sharon been single and waiting for you all these years?” Jennie finally couldn’t resist and had to speak bluntly. “Hasn’t she been working so hard for she could have the qualification to stand beside you?”

“Auntie Jennie, I think you misunderstood.” Joshua calmly cooked. “Sharon is adventurous, and she can’t take a fancy to any man. Auntie Jennie, each of the kids you have raised, is very extraordinary. Do not look at them with conventional eyes.”

Jennie was so pissed off by him that she laughed. “So, are you taking Hazel seriously?”

“Mmm.” Joshua’s eyes softened a little.

At the mention of Hazel, Jennie frowned. “She’s so spoiled.”

“She’s not a spoiled child,” Joshua said quietly. “but I’m glad she grew up in a happy family.”

Jennie looked at him, puzzled.

“Auntie Jennie, I’m sure Hazel is the one. Perhaps you don’t like her very much, but please don’t show it. She cares about you very much, and you should feel it,” Joshua said quietly.

“Is she that good?” Jennie became more confused. She had never seen Joshua care so much about anybody.

“Yes.” Joshua looked out of the window softly. “Auntie Jennie, as long as you don’t have any prejudice against Hazel, you will find she’s great.”
